Falcons add veteran edge rusher Za’Darius Smith on one-year deal

Dolphins… Diggs talk fizzles as they chase cheaper WR options

Miami explored Stefon Diggs as a potential long-term answer at receiver, but talks didn’t lead to a deal and Diggs signed a one-year pact with Washington.

Peak production came in 2020-21, but he posted just one TD last season and will turn 36 before the 2026 season, with his next NFL destination still uncertain and unlikely to be the Saints.

Rachaad White Emerges as Washington's Backfield X-factor at OTAs

The Commanders signed former Buccaneer Rachaad White to a one-year, $2 million deal, reuniting him with college QB Jayden Daniels.

His Tampa Bay exit looks like a potential steal if his early momentum carries through the summer.
